Looks pretty bad. The pillar might be bent. If it is, I'd look for a new one. One benefit is you already know what's still good on yours, so automatic parts car, so you could buy one that has a bad motor, trans etc for cheap. Have you had a body shoo look at it yet?
No sir, i have not went to a shop yet.Looks pretty bad. The pillar might be bent. If it is, I'd look for a new one.

If any of pilars are bent it will be a coin toss. A good body shop will have a machine to pull them back to factory spec tho and more than doable to fix. Just will never be quite like new again.
If just doors then is a no brainer. Get doors at junkyard, paint to match bolt on. If done youself is super cheap and more than managable for at home project.

I may do that!Last car I worked on was FAR worse than yours. They had to straighten the whole front end. Including unit body and frame.
Was $600...
But we pulled all the stuff for him so he just had to put it on his machine. That is the way to go if you have to pay without insurance.
However have shop look at it first then ask which parts to leave on. They may for instsnce use some parts to bend the body back into shape... for instsnce they used the bumper to pull the frame raise back into shape on our car.

It only took us a couple hours to prep car for body shop. Was definately worth it and not hard to do. Fyi doors are manageble to lift off with one person but best with two.I may do that!
